You Use Foodstamps! The Ultimate Comeback to Annoying Mothers
Taken from [info]wank_report. In [info]cf_hardcore, [info]mero posted about how a kid stepped on her toe, she told the kid to be more careful, the mother said something insulting (OR DID SHE?) and then [info]mero insulted the woman back for using food stamps to buy her groceries.

About half the members of [info]cf_hardcore don't applaud her smackdown. They figure that belittling people for being on social assistance is going too far. Arguments ensue about whether the woman was rude or not, whether [info]mero is too bitchy to people who bump into her, whether [info]cf_hardcore is becoming too PC, and if [info]mero's remark about the food stamps was actually an insult.

[info]mero: "I didn't say it as an insult. I said it to indicate that she should think of all the input that goes into that card, so she should accept it coming from a stranger."

My faith in cf_hardcore had been semi-restored until people actually defended the OP.

I hate rude parents/children/people as much as the next person, but way to blow something tiny out of proportion and add an extra heaping of asshole to the situation. Apparently anyone unfortunate enough to bump into hir should fling themselves to the ground and beg forgiveness.

You, my dear, are an ignorant, hateful bitch.

And I'm not saying this as an insult. I'm saying that she should think of all the input that goes into the serious business of the internet, so she should accept it coming from a stranger.

Two things I am glad to have done this century:

1. Quit all childfree communities. Somewhat akin to that sequence in that action movie where the guy leaps through the closing steel doors just in time to avoid being cut in two. Except without the clever film editing that would have made it look like a much closer call than it actually was.

2. Stop calling myself childfree. Funny how all it takes is a few thousand big babies wiping their asses with a perfectly decent concept, and no one sane wants to be seen anywhere near it.

3. Hang out on wank comms, where I can still read about the really good stuff without fear of the usual swill burning a hole in my brain.

Oh for God's sake, a kid stepped on your toe. BOO HOO. What was she supposed to do, throw herself on the floor and wail and beat her breast until you benevolently forgave her? I can't believe people at cf_hardcore are defending the OP for being a pretentious fuckwit.

Also, I HATE that they call kids 'fucktrophies' and begrudge families child support. Um, kids cost money. Therefore, the government will help out with that. If you don't have a child, you don't get child support. Because you DON'T HAVE A CHILD. This does not mean that there is an international conspiracy to oppress the childfree. It just means that KIDS COST MONEY.

Christ. If only their parents had adopted their philosophies.

I think "too far" was passed somewhere around the conception of the idea that one can be "hardcore" about not having children.

mero: "I didn't say it as an insult. I said it to indicate that she should think of all the input that goes into that card, so she should accept it coming from a stranger."

What is she saying, exactly? That people who pay taxes earn the right to whine incessantly to people who use food stamps?

Apparently, somebody's been watching too much 'Leave it to Beaver'. "Oh! Gee whilikers! I'm so sorry! Let me carry your bags for you," just isn't gonna happen in the real world. At least the kid apologized, which is something considering some of the manners I've seen from kids these days.

And the food stamp comment. Bitch, get over yourself. A lot of people on assistance pay taxes too, dumbass.

Why didn't she just accuse the mother of spending all her food stamps on booze while she was at it? Christ, I admit, there are some people using the card who probably don't deserve it, but, from the description, that woman and her kid more than likely weren't among them.

Why aren't these people living in caves or something by now? That would solve the whole 'having to be around children for more than 10 seconds' thing! Also when I was a kid, I would have done the same thing. Hell, occasionally I still do stupid stuff like walk on people's shoes, because I'm not paying attention.

Quick story with Kitti the Goth.

A week or so ago, the man and I were at the store checking out at one of those self checkers--because we are anti-social that way--and I was about to move the cart to get around it. Looked down and a toddler was staring at me and holding on the the cart--was just at that "holy shit I can walk!" stage, so about 3 months. I suspect he was doing that "omgwtf dark people" look that I see from children of the lighter persuasion when they don't grow up around us darker people. I gave him a smile, said "hey" and didn't move the cart so he wouldn't fall. His ma scooped him up all embarrassed, and I gave her a smile that said, "he

Now, if i was OMG CH1LDFR33 H4RDC0R3, I could have came home and made up a story told the spendiferous finagled contraption about about how I swung my cart at him and laughed as the kid's face bled all over the tile, or how I snarked at some moo and her drooling cuntnugget and then made a disparaging remark about welfare. But I didn't. That's because I've learned three things.

1: Being a rude bitch is bad form.
2: Being on welfare is a shaming thing at times, and other people pointing it out like that is highly painful.
3: Impressing people with tales about abusing people smaller than I am for existing in my personal space (defined here as within a 2700 kilometer radius) means that I AM BORING and should GET A LIFE.

The end. Now craft time!

I think Mero's village didn't do a very good job of teaching her good manners. I bet that child mumbled its apology because it was frightened by the big scary lady.

I do think the mom being acted badly, though. She have praised the child for doing the right thing and apologizing as soon as it realized what it had done.

By the way, why is it that when someone wants to justify asswipe style behavior they start accusing people of being too PC?

Wow.. What a loser. CF people like that make me embarrassed to call myself CF but then again, I'm not a rabid piece of shit like that person so... I love how the people in that community expect a freaking medal or something because they acted like rude disgusting worthless pieces of DNA.

cf_hardcore is full of the most whiny, bat shit (and extremely ugly) people I've ever seen on the internet. There's a lot of people in that community that are pretty decent folks but for the most part? I wouldn't be too sad if a few of them got picked off by AIDS or Cancer. We can use far less useless people in this world.
